1984-01-01Wayne dreams he can build a small layout with a minimum of expenses and space. He gets some helpful advice from his "Good Sense." There's so much to consider... time period, type of traffic, and scale. Wayne selects a 1950's-era branch line in HO. The Atlas track components cause the size to be 4'6" x 3'8". L-girder is perfect for the Marengo, Milwaukee & Northern. We need 1x1s, 1x2s, 1x3s, 1x4s, 2x2s, and a sheet of 1/2" plywood. "Keep it simple" is good advice for a first-time layout. However, by dividing the layout into 4 blocks we can run two trains. Polyfoam is the base for the scenic landforms. Wayne adds laytex paint, ground foam, and rocks. Artist's acrylic Gloss Medium forms the lake. All the structures get some weathering. Wayne lists some of the problem areas - couplers, track, and trucks - and shows you how to make them work properly. Locomotives can also be a source of trouble if you fail to maintain them.The Gauntlet

2006-08-10"Who Is Bozo Texino?" is a film study on the 100-year-old tradition of hobo and railworker graffiti. Mostly shot on freight trips across the western US, the film includes interviews with some of the railroad’s greatest graffiti legends: Colossus of Roads, The Rambler, Herby (RIP) and the granddaddy of them all, Bozo Texino. The film also catches some of the socio-economic history of hobo subculture from its roots after the Civil War to the present day. The range of the interviews, and the film’s style deal with both the clichés and the harsh realities of tramp life.3 1/2 Hours

2000-12-10The mighty 4449 was painted black with BNSF decals to head up a BNSF Employee Appreciation Special in July, 2000. Running in excursions over former Burlington Northern trackage, the Daylight treated enthusiastic throngs of spectators to the sights and sounds of thundering steam power. Starting in Vancouver, Washington, we follow the train across the state and into British Columbia, Canada, and Idaho, visiting the cities of Tacoma, Seattle, Everett, Bellingham, and Vancouver, B.C. A special highlight is a ride aboard the train along the Puget Sound, from Balmer Yard in Seattle to Everett. You'll see the EAS traveling over Stevens Pass - what an awesome sight that is! - and at Skykomish and exiting Cascade Tunnel. Continuing eastward, the train stops at Wenatchee and Spokane, then crosses the long bridge over Lake Pend Oreille on its way to Sandpoint, Idaho.
